Welcome to the wild west—well, sort of! This joint looks like a classic western hotel that time forgot, complete with vintage decor straight out of a 1960s postcard. If you're into that retro vibe, you're going to love it here—think of it as a theme park for nostalgia! Each room is like a treasure chest filled with antique books and doodads that scream 'history lesson!' But wait, there's more! They’ve tossed in a modern TV and a fireplace too, blending the comforts of today with the fabulous quirks of yesteryear. It's like if a cowboy and a tech guru had a baby, and that baby opened a hotel!
